Step 1: Tools & Parts

To complete this instructable you will require: Essential Parts: An original XBOX An original XBOX "breakaway" cable A male-to-female USB cable USB key A copy of Splinter Cell Tools: Pliers Soldering ...

An FTP client will be needed. I highly recommend Filezilla as it is free, open source and an excellent, mature program.

You will require a certain save file or two for Splinter Cell to proceed. Later in the instructable will also require a build of XBMC which runs on the console. More information can be found on via Google.
